Text will come up informing you that no photo was taken because not enough of the subject was in the frame, but the goal will complete.

The camera works fine when no subject is in view (except those pictures don't count for anything), but as soon as there is a subject in the frame and you take a picture, the game will crash and not give credit for the picture.Įarly in the game, when you first acquire the camera, there is a chance you can complete the first task given you where the camera must be used by taking pictures (of spider slicers) by having only a portion of the target in the frame.
